By far, our singular favorite place among those we have seen. It's worth every penny to get married here. The service, ambiance, and food are all exceptional!

My husband nor I are from Michigan (from the Chicagoland area) and everyone kept asking us "why Michigan?" The moment they walked in, they felt the same feeling I did when I first toured the venue. It is beautiful, unique, personal and was everything and more that I could have hoped for. Our wedding as at the end of June and we were very fortunate that the rain held off and the temperature/humidity ended up being perfect. We had about 185 guests attend the wedding and I think everyone was too stunned by the venue to even care about the drizzle of rain that was happening. Not to mention, Amelia and her staff are absolutely amazing from the very beginning to the very end.

Fernwood really is a hidden gem. The grounds are beautiful and their rates very affordable! They were very responsive to my many questions, and very helpful on the day of our wedding. They even let us use an extra classroom for the groomsmen to get ready in. They were also really flexible. You can’t really go wrong here, and the garden itself can be your decor! We also left one item behind by accident which we were able to pick up a few days later. Lots of “areas” to choose from for your day, too. Only complaint was the poison Ivy growing along some of the pathways, which were already fairly narrow. We just used alternate paths and it was no big deal!

Sundance & The Secret Garden was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was responsive, helpful, and kind. They were attentive to all of our needs and went above and beyond to make our day special. The venue itself was incredibly spacious, with a beautiful bridal suite and a cozy groomsman garage that provided the perfect getting ready spaces. When we had a mishap and spilled wine on one of the white tablecloths, they quickly steam cleaned it before the ceremony so you'd never know. And when we realized we had the wrong size tablecloths, they immediately provided the matching color we needed. Sundance & The Secret Garden truly helped make our wedding day one we'll never forget.

We absolutely LOVED our small wedding at Stonegate Manor! Due to Covid, our wedding day and venue as initially planned were canceled. I found Stonegate Manor four days in advance of our ceremony. Thank you Prudy (the owner) for making it such a beautiful and easy experience! Prudy was extremely accommodating with our requests and the price was very reasonable. Also, they provided a very nice wedding officiant that made the process easy. The property is gorgeous and as a result our photos turned out stunning. Honestly when I tell friends that we found Stonegate Manor four days before our ceremony and they see our photos they are shocked. Thank you!!!!! <3

My husband and I were married here on 7.13.2024. It was heavenly!!! When we toured other venues in the southwest Michigan region no place felt quite right. We happened to hear about Inisfree in passing and decided to drive over. Peggy and Bruce (the owners) couldn't have been kinder and more welcoming and they remained that way the entire process and continue to be! They have so much passion for Inisfree and it shows. The ground are beautiful and immaculate and they truly love to engage with people. We also rented all ten rooms out at the bed and breakfast for our wedding weekend and got special and intimate time with our friends- from pool time, garden/patio hangs, and delicious home made breakfasts (quiche, zucchini bread, blueberry muffins just to name some of my favorites). Our friends/wedding party who stayed onsite continue to rave about their stay and the guests of our wedding party couldn't get over how beautiful the property is. Everyone loved silent disco!!! Do you self a favor and book a tour. The place speaks for itself. We can't wait to return for our anniversary :)
